When Gary Andersen first arrived in Logan exactly 10 years ago, the engaging, player-first defensive mind provided a jolt of infusion into the Cache Valley, one that immediately captivated those who bled Aggie blue. Andersen made Utah State believe again. After 14 consecutive losing seasons that spanned throughout various conferences, the Aggies found that someone to change just about everything.
They found it in Andersen, who from 2009 to 2012, altered the future of Utah State football for the next decade. In 2011, he led the Aggies to its first winning campaign since 1996. That was the beginning of a new look in Logan.
